White Stains

Exploring themes of sexual perversion and societal taboo, this provocative collection of verse presents itself as the posthumous works of George Archibald Bishop, a fictional neuropath from the Second Empire. Drawing inspiration from Richard Krafft-Ebing's Psychopathia Sexualis, it delves into the darker aspects of human desire. Originally published in 1898, the book faced significant censorship, with only a few copies surviving Her Majesty's Customs, adding to its mystique and historical significance.
